Uvala Garbina vela
✨ Hidden gem
Uvala Garbina Vela is a beautiful sheltered bay on the island of Čiovo, near Split, where you drop anchor and swim in strikingly clear turquoise water. The surroundings are quiet and unspoiled, making it a great contrast to the busy Split waterfront just a short distance away. If you're up for exploring on land, the bay sits near some well-regarded MTB and hiking trails that cut across Čiovo.
